News Release For Immediate Release New Sanikiluaq Health Centre ceremonial opening Sanikiluaq, Nunavut (August 11, 2021) – A special celebration marked the grand opening of the new Sanikiluaq Health Centre today. The ceremonial ribbon cutting was officiated by Minister of Health, Lorne Kusugak, Minister of Community and Government Services, Jeannie Ehaloak, Hudson Bay MLA Allan Rumbolt, and Mayor Johnnie Cookie. “I am very pleased to be able to celebrate the opening of the new health centre in Sanikiluaq,” said Kusugak. “This new, state-of-the-art facility offers major improvements that will enhance patient care and experience while also enhancing working conditions for our staff.” The new 1,775-square-metre health centre opened to patients on February 15, replacing the old health centre that was built in 1984. The new, larger health centre offers residents improved access to programs and services all under one roof. “Today, we celebrate the opening of a vital piece of community infrastructure which will serve Sanikiluarmiut for years to come,” said Ehaloak. “The additional space in the new Health Centre will improve access to health services and enhance quality of life here in Sanikiluaq.” The new health centre in Sanikiluaq will also allow for the future addition of staff, offers a more welcoming visitor experience, and improves community access to integrated healthcare services. The modern design and additional space will comfortably serve the current and anticipated needs of Sanikiluarmiut. ### Media Contact: Chris Puglia Acting Manager, Communications Department of Health 867-975-5949 [email protected] ᐱᕙᓪᓕᐊᔪᑦ ᑐᓴᒐᒃᓴᙳᖅᑎᑕᐅᔪᑦ ᐱᔭᐅᔪᓐᓇᖃᑦᑕᖅᑐᑦ ᐃᓄᒃᑎᑑᖓᓗᑎᒃ, ᖃᓪᓗᓈᑎᑐᑦ, ᐃᓄᐃᓐᓇᖅᑐᓐ ᐅᐃᕖᑎᑐᓪᓗ ᐅᕙᓂ, www.gov.nu.ca.

evue canadienne V olume 41, No 1 Arbre généalogique politique: Les liens familiaux au sein du Parlement du Canada 2 CANADIAN PARLIAMENTARY REVIEW/SPRING 2017 La masse actuelle de la Chambre d’assemblée de la Nouvelle Écosse est en usage depuis qu’elle a été offerte à l’Assemblée le 5 mars 1930 par le juge en chef Robert Edward Harris, quatorzième juge en chef de la Nouvelle Écosse, et sa femme. Faite de vermeil, elle mesure 4 pieds de hauteur et pèse environ 18 livres. Ses quatre faces représentent respectivement la couronne royale, les armoiries de la Nouvelle Écosse, le grand sceau actuel de la province (celui conféré avant la Confédération) et la silhouette d’un Président vêtu de ses habits officiels. Sont également gravés sur la masse la fleur de mai, emblème floral de la Nouvelle Écosse, et le chardon écossais. La masse a été fabriquée en Angleterre par Elkington and Company, Limited. M. et Mme Harris souhaitaient que leur don de la masse reste anonyme. Le premier ministre de l’époque a respecté leur désir, mais a demandé que leur legs puisse être reconnu ultérieurement au moyen d’une inscription gravée sur la masse. Par conséquent, dans son testament, le juge en chef a chargé ses exécuteurs de faire graver l’inscription suivante sur la masse et d’assumer les coûts des travaux à même sa succession : « Cette masse fut présentée à la Chambre d’assemblée de la province de la Nouvelle Écosse par l’honorable Robert E. Harris, juge en chef de la Nouvelle Écosse, et par Mme Harris, en mars 1930.

IQRF 2019 001 Kkangiqłiniq HTO Inuit Perspectives on Caribou Management Final Report
Inuit Perspectives on Caribou Management Workshop Rankin Inlet, August 20, 2019 Clayton Tartak Kangiqłiniq Hunters and Trappers Organization Ezra Greene Research Consultant Warren Bernauer Research Consultant Report prepared for the Kangiqłiniq Hunters and Trappers Organization Summary On August 20, 2019 the Kangiqłiniq Hunters and Trappers Organization (K-HTO) in Rankin Inlet held a day-long workshop with four Elders: Jerome Kupaak Tattuinee, Mary-Ann Inuaraq Tattuinee, Alain Kumak Kabvitok, and Jack Tikiq Kabvitok. The focus of the workshop was Inuit perspectives on caribou management. The project was carried out by three researchers: Clayton Tartak (project leader), Ezra Greene (research consultant), and Warren Bernauer (research consultant). Interpretation services between Inuktitut and English were provided by Maggie Putulik. The project received funding from the Nunavut Wildlife Management Board’s (NWMB) Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit Research Fund. To facilitate discussion, the researchers screened videos from the Kaminuriak Caribou Herd Project: a participatory video project that documented Inuit perspectives on caribou management in the early 1980s. The videos helped stimulate conversation – they were particularly useful in generating discussion about how caribou and caribou management have changed since the 1980s. The workshop addressed several issues relevant to caribou management today, including: traditional rules for caribou hunting, changes related to caribou since the 1980s, the impacts of mining on caribou, concerns with selling caribou meat, concerns with younger hunters not following traditional rules, the importance of teaching younger hunters traditional skills, rules, and values, and commentary on research. The Elders indicated that they enjoyed the workshop format, especially the use of videos and recommended the researchers hold similar workshops in other communities.
